I am an Associate Professor of Political Science at Aarhus University.
My research focuses on comparative political behavior among elites and citizens, with a particular interest in how politicians and voters select and use information for decision-making. Methodologically, I have a strong interest in experiments and computational social science. I have published and have forthcoming work in leading journals, including Nature Human Behaviour, the Journal of Politics, British Journal of Political Science, Political Science Research and Methods, and the European Journal of Political Research.
I was educated at the University of Vienna and Aarhus University, and have held visiting positions at the London School of Economics, Harvard University, the University of Zurich, and the University of Vienna.
I am one of the directors of The Local Governance Laboratory, which organizes the European Panel of Local Officials, a bi-annual survey of local elected representatives.
Currently, I hold a three-year Semper Ardens Accelerate Grant from the Carlsberg Foundation alongside a NOVA grant from the Aarhus University Research Foundation.
